Storm of the Century.

I've done my part to ready for the storm. I broke out my official RA set of Crayola markers and made signs that remind people to close and lock their windows when they leave their room (as Seton Hill is a wind tunnel), locate their flashlights (I know mine is residing on a shelf at Wal*Mart), and check the batteries in their clocks.

Thus, in honor Isabel, who may be more of a media starlet than an actual weather event, here are some storm readiness links to peruse:

  • Pa. schools in storm path cancel Friday classes Who calls a rain day in advance? I've heard of getting out early, but seriously....
  • Elk County gears up for Isabel My hometown newspaper offers this advice on stockpiling canned goods: "remember the electric can opener may not work."
  • North Carolina pork industry ready before Isabel hit I'm relieved that someone thought to safegaurd the nation's bacon and pork supply.
  • The naming of Atlantic hurricanesFor another six years, "Julie" has been snubbed.
  • Stormy Weather by Carl Hiaasen An entertaining hurricane read.
